latherer

Suds-up specialist

A latherer is someone or something that produces lather—the foam created when soap meets water and agitation.

The word most often describes a person working up suds: a barber lathering a client's face before a shave, or someone scrubbing vigorously in the shower.

It can also refer to products: This shampoo is a great latherer.
